That's 100% fake. Real Mugen bars aren't hinged pieces of **** with a sticker on them.

Its all too common for sweat shops to make crap fake parts. But a strut bar? As long as all looks good and you get it for cheap. Who cares. But if your a geniune JDM guy... Yeah its fake.

The authentic Mugen bar will outperform that POS hands down. The Mugen is one-piece aircraft grade steel. That's cheap aluminum alloy with hinged mounting points.

the first gen mugen doesnt have welded ends but hinged piece like this fake one... although it is missing the shock tower extra mount the first gen offers, it will still perform better then the stock IRE piece probably.. if its cheap buy it i guess and paint those red ends black cuz they look like ***
